IMLS Issue Brief prepared by the American Alliance of Museums:
� Elementary and Secondary Education
� We support efforts to promote school museum partnerships, recognize the role that holders of advanced degrees in museum education can play in enhancing students; learning outcomes, require greater collaboration between the Dept. of Education and the IMLS, allow museums and other qualified nonprofits to directly compete for teacher professional development funds, and retain a set of core academic subjects that include the many subject areas in which museums help teach the curriculum, including English, reading or language arts, mathematics, science, foreign languages, civics and government, economics, arts, history, and geography.
![Page 35: We All Want the Same ThiNg (2) [Read-Only] › wp-content › uploads › We_All... · ArtsinStark: SmArts Program The SmArts Grants Program encourages K-12 classroom teachers in](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042407/5f214a38f3cb0156bc3a3305/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Some Museum Facts (provided by American Alliance of Museums)
� Museums bring more than 18 million instructional hours to children in a variety of disciplines.
� Encourage all schools and school districts to take advantage of museums as unique educational resources and to facilitate museum visits to help teach the curriculum.
![Page 36: We All Want the Same ThiNg (2) [Read-Only] › wp-content › uploads › We_All... · ArtsinStark: SmArts Program The SmArts Grants Program encourages K-12 classroom teachers in](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042407/5f214a38f3cb0156bc3a3305/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Unintended Consequences of No Child Left Behind
� More than one third (36 percent) of all school districts have cut elementary social studies instruction by an average of 76 minutes a week. Science instruction is down at 28 percent of the schools, and arts education is down at 16 percent of the schools.
� As a result, museum visits and instruction related to art, science and history (among other subject areas) have decreased.
![Page 37: We All Want the Same ThiNg (2) [Read-Only] › wp-content › uploads › We_All... · ArtsinStark: SmArts Program The SmArts Grants Program encourages K-12 classroom teachers in](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042407/5f214a38f3cb0156bc3a3305/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Museums are critical partners in education
� Each year, museums spend more than $2 billion on educational programming and provide millions of hours of instruction to students and teachers, including the following:
� Educational programming for students
� Museum staff programs in schools
� Traveling exhibits in schools
� Pre-service teacher development
� Professional development for teachers
� Approximately 55 million museum visits each year from school students
� The typical museum devotes three quarters of its education budget specifically to K-12 students. In 2010, despite a year of economic stress, 78% of museums maintained or expanded the resources devoted
to K-12 education (Alliance study).
